No, no. Its not true. And its not good to say something like that.
My idea was deck-watch based on this old Retro with central hand

and polish watch "Pilsudski"
So, I wrote to my friend at the Vostok factory that it was nice to make a deck-watch.
And I have attached several pictures, including yours, which I found on the Russian forum - as a sample. But my friend did not understand me and used it as a basis for the design, by the plant.
Although we already had our own design ready.
The design that you have given has already been rejected by us. Its bad for us. And its not Russian.
